Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 400
Fifth Yuan is also a person with no discernment. He hit it off with Wang Chengwei and said directly:

"Hey, it's not my uncle who wants to seek a job in Beijing."

Wang Chengwei nodded and understood Fifth Yuan's meaning.

In the Tang Dynasty, capital officials were the most expensive, and many ministers would rather be officials in the capital than be promoted to remote state capitals.

This is also because in the era of centralized power, it is easier to be promoted only if you are close to the center of power.

Although Fifth Qi is an expert in financial management, he has been squeezed out by the various towns in Jianghuai since he arrived in Jianghuai.

There are also many criticisms against him in the imperial court. At this time, taking advantage of the merits and quickly transferring to the center is the best way.

Fifth Yuan sighed and said, "I never expected that after entering Fengxiang Mansion, I couldn't even touch the prime minister's gate."

Fifth Yuan looked at Wang Chengwei and said: "Scholar, I think you are also a talent. When this autumn is over, I will recommend you to Jianghuai. The job in this salt courtyard is also very good."

In other words, Fifth Yuan felt that Wang Chengwei would definitely not be admitted to Jinshi.

Wang Chengwei just smiled at the other party's kind reminder, but he still said to Wuyuan: "Wang Chengwei is in Xialongyou, and now lives in the Longyou Guild Hall. I don't know where brother lives?"

Exchanging the address of residence is equivalent to leaving a communication method for each other.

Obviously this Fifth Yuan is not an ordinary character, and if he has a good relationship with him, he might be able to arrange other players to work in Jianghuai.

This is definitely a good choice for players who like to be a monster.

The two lined up and chatted, and finally reached the fifth plain.

Fifth Yuan walked up to the porter, and respectfully handed the letter written by Fifth Qi and his own identification to the porter.

The concierge just glanced lightly at Fifth Yuan's greeting card, then opened the registration book again, and said to Fifth Yuan:
"Guests please go to the arbor and wait."

The concierge is polite and courteous.

But Wang Chengwei could also feel the arrogance in his tone.

Sure enough, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, it is really difficult for ordinary people to see the prime minister.

Fifth Yuan smiled at Wang Chengwei who was behind him, then walked to the arbor with his head held high.

"Next!"

Wang Chengwei walked up to the concierge, and he first handed over the letter of recommendation written by King Jianning.

Seeing King Jianning's letter, the concierge raised his head and glanced at Wang Chengwei meaningfully.

Wang Chengwei handed over the letter written by Wang Jun, the head of the Wang family branch in Taiyuan.

Seeing Wang Jun's letter, the concierge's attitude immediately changed, and he said to Wang Chengwei:
"So you are a descendant of the Wang family, hurry up and invite the young master!"

The servant immediately left quickly, and after a while, the side door of Wang's house opened, and a middle-aged man in brocade clothes came out.

"Young master, this is a son of the Wang family in Taiyuan, and also the nephew of the late Xiangye." The porter said immediately.

Pei Miao is Pei Mian's eldest son, and he did not become an official, but assisted his father in government affairs.

Pei Mian is not at home now, and Pei Miao is the person with the highest status in the family. He went out to greet Wang Chengwei in person, which is enough to show that the Pei family attaches great importance to this guest.

Now Fifth Yuan is dumbfounded, brother, why do you have to line up with everyone when you have such a big relationship?

Pei Mian's son personally invited Wang Chengwei in, and the people lining up outside blasted the street.

What kind of person is this, who is able to let the prime minister's mansion open the side door, and let the prime minister's son come to greet him in person?
The concierge is also a knowledgeable person. When Wang Chengwei entered the mansion, he said loudly:
"This Wang Scholar is a son of the Wang family in Taiyuan, the nephew of my family's old friend, and a young scholar who was recommended by King Jianning to come to Fengxiang Mansion for the exam."

Everyone suddenly realized that it was such a relationship.

This status can already enter and leave the prime minister's mansion, why should he line up with his family to go through the main entrance!

Order was restored at the door, but news about Wang Chengwei spread quickly.

Wang Chengwei didn't expect that the first round of momentum he came to Fengxiang Mansion would start with this queue.

With the letter written by Wang Mao himself, Wang Chengwei confirmed his identity as a child of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

In an era when more attention was paid to family status, and the five surnames and seven wangs were all over the court, this was the stepping stone to enter the officialdom.

The letter of recommendation from King Jianning was the real reason why Pei Mian's family valued Wang Chengwei.

Since the last joint letter to invite the emperor to return to Chang'an, Pei Mian has been regarded as a party with King Jianning in the court.

Now the officials of the prince's faction want to push Pei Mian down from the position of prime minister all the time.

With the combination of Shangbo, an alliance supporting King Jianning took shape.

Such a political alliance has initially formed, and this time Pei Mian is the chief examiner, so it is a matter of course to support the candidates in the alliance.

Wang Chengwei was invited to the wing to drink tea with Pei Miao to catch up.

The rest of the players didn't sit still, and these guys also started to build momentum.

Isn't it just famous?Isn't it traffic?
These are all leftovers from future generations!

Except for some players who are planning to become famous at the Princess Mansion Poetry Conference in a day, some players have already taken action.

Li Bo, whose attribute points were all points of strength and endurance, started to move first.

Don't look at this guy as a big and thick guy, but in reality he is a planner of an internet celebrity company.

Internet celebrity companies do not have strong other capabilities, so the ability to generate traffic is naturally first-class.

Zhou Bo first contracted the best restaurant "Xiang Fu Lou" in Fengxiang Mansion, and then he had someone make a huge signboard with the words "Dou Shi Jiu" written on it.

Zhou Bo asked the restaurant to bring up all the old wine stored, and then asked the staff to publicize at the door:

"As long as you can write poetry, you can come in and have a drink for free."

"If you are willing to go upstairs, you can have a drink with Zhou Bo. If you can write poems better than Zhou Bo, you will be given a jar of fine wine."

"If Zhou Bo loses his poems, all the fine wine in the store will be given away to passers-by."

This restaurant was originally located on the busiest street in Fengxiang Mansion, where literati often come.

Zhou Bo's high profile naturally caused a stir in Fengxiang Mansion.

Those ordinary people who couldn't compose poems gathered around the restaurant one after another, wanting to see what kind of poems a maniac like Zhou Bo could make.

A few days ago, Wei Yingwu and Gu Kuang both received Zizhi Tongjian from the backyard of the Longyou Governor's Mansion.

The two often make appointments to watch together, today is a rare day to relax, Wei Yingwu invited Gu Kuang to a restaurant for a drink.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the Xiangfu Building, they found that the restaurant had already been booked.

The person who hired the restaurant turned out to be a candidate for the Qiuwei exam this time, and a candidate from Longyou.

Literati in the Central Plains disdain this place in Longyou.

Where is Longyou?It is a place where prisoners are exiled.

What kind of serious scholars can there be in this kind of place! ?

This is not to blame the Central Plains literati for some regional discrimination, the level of cultural development in Longyou is really not good.

Wei Yingwu frowned, looking at the signboard of "Doujiu Poetry" flying at the entrance of the restaurant.

Gu Kuang said directly: "I'm afraid it's not the scholar from Longyou who wants to make a name for himself in this way?"

Wei Yingwu shook his head and said, "The ones who can buy Xiangfulou's wine are probably the children of wealthy families in Longyou, but this will cause dissatisfaction among scholars in the Central Plains."

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon among the scholars participating in this autumn, if he wins the poetry competition in one round, this Longyou scholar will probably become a joke in Fengxiang Mansion."

Gu Kuang also nodded. In the final analysis, it is necessary to become famous in the circle of cultural people, and you still have to work hard.

If he loses in one round, it will be considered that the wine in Xiangfulou has been exhausted, and it will not be able to buy the praise of the scholars.

At this time, a scholar in brocade clothes came to the door of Xiangfu Building.

"Yan Wei from Shan'in, please go upstairs!"

The onlookers cheered one after another: "Good!"

Seeing the shop waiter handing over a glass of wine, the scholar named Yan Wei drank it down in one gulp, dropped the bowl and went upstairs.

I only heard Yan Wei going upstairs on the wooden stairs. Wei Yingwu has always made many friends. He said to Gu Kuang:

"This Yan Wei is also a celebrity among the candidates for this year's examination. His performance papers have been praised by many court ministers."

Gu Kuang watched Yan Wei go upstairs, only to hear a powerful voice from upstairs shouting:

"Brother Yan, please drink!"

The shop waiter poured wine for Yan Wei, and Zhou Bo and Yan Wei drank each other.

Zhou Bo said loudly: "Brother Yan, how about a poem about wine?"

Zhou Bo's voice was so loud that the people onlookers could hear his voice. Gu Kuang and Wei Yingwu looked at each other. Is this a scholar or a martial artist?

Yan Wei agreed, and he quickly composed a poem. After reciting it twice, a guy with a loud voice immediately went to the window and read aloud:

"Shanyin Yanlang, write a wine poem!"

Then the guy read aloud Yan Wei's impromptu poem.

"it is good!"

The onlookers applauded one after another.

Even Wei Yingwu applauded. Although this poem is not a good line, but the antithesis is neat, and the whole line is catchy.

The fact that impromptu poetry can achieve this level also shows that Yan Wei has real talents and practical learning.

After Yan Wei finished the poem, he looked at Zhou Bo who was sitting on the collapsed bed with Dama Jindao.

Yan Wei looked at him with a playful expression, disapproving of Zhou Bo in his heart, a mere scumbag, doesn't he have some filthy money?How dare you come to the Central Plains to show off!

I didn't expect that Longyou would recommend such a person to take part in the imperial examination, what a disgrace to the gentleman!

Yan Wei thought so, but Zhou Bo took another sip of wine unexpectedly.

He stood up with a strong body, walked to the window, and said in a calm voice:

The scenery is different in autumn, Hengyang geese go without paying attention.The sound from all sides rises, Qianzhangli, long smoke and sunset close the city.

With a cup of turbid wine, Yan Ran was at a loss.Qiangguan was frosty on the floor, people were sleepless, and the generals had white hair and tears.

As soon as the words came out, the whole street fell silent.
